Chapter 25 The first meeting of Ji Nanjing and the masked man
The White Mansion is heavily guarded. Although it is not as well guarded as the General's Mansion, in recent years, few people have dared to break into the White Mansion so blatantly at night.
But, now, not only Ji Nanjing, but also a masked man has arrived! From this, it can be seen that the security of the Bai Mansion is still a bit bad. If it were in the General's Mansion, this masked man would have been captured by the General's Mansion.
The secret guard was shot into a sieve.
Ji Nanjing's eyes widened and he carefully looked at the masked man in front of him, up and down, left and right, front and back. He was surprised that he didn't see who this man was! It wasn't like he didn't want to pick him off.
Face towel, but...his dear cousin obviously doesn't want him to do this!
The masked man stared at Ji Nanjing fearlessly with his bright eyes. The two stared at each other for a long time, until...
"Ahem..."
Maybe she had been standing for a long time and the night wind was blowing. Bai Yanqing's breath was a little unsteady, she turned her head and coughed twice.
The two people who heard the coughing suddenly became nervous.
The masked man was the first to take action, grabbing Bai Yanqing's wrist and taking her pulse.
"Men and women are not allowed to be intimate. You are a big man and can easily grab a woman's hand. If others see it, do you still want my Yan'er's innocence?"
Bai Yanqing was obviously used to it, so she never paid attention to it. However, Ji Nanjing who was standing aside could not stand it. While shouting, she was about to push the man's palm.
The masked man was not a vegetarian either. With a blow of his palm, he actually pushed Ji Nanjing three feet away!
"Don't hurt my brother Jing!"
Bai Yanqing was a little anxious. Why did this person take action?
Bai Yanqing shook off his hand and went to check if Ji Nanjing was injured.
Bai Yanqing took Ji Nan Jingzai and looked at him carefully. When she saw that he was not feeling any discomfort, Bai Yanqing felt relieved.
What she didn't notice was that two men were secretly competing with each other.
Ji Nanjing looked triumphant, raised his head, and glanced sideways at the man, his eyes full of arrogance. Looking back at the masked man, his eyes were obviously a bit darker, and there was a trace of something that was hard to detect...
…envy.
"Hey, let me ask, is he mute? I've been here for so long and I haven't seen him say a word!"
Seeing that the man still didn't speak, Ji Nanjing couldn't help but ask Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing spat at Ji Nanjing, calling him a crow's mouth. She knew that the masked man always talked little and didn't like to talk, so she was used to it, but Ji Nanjing was a bit ignorant, or maybe...
Ji Nanjing knows what's interesting, but...he insists on teasing that person!
The man remained silent, his brows were as wrinkled as rags, and his eyes were filled with disgust for Ji Nanjing!
Bai Yanqing held her forehead, feeling a little headache. How could this person have gathered together tonight?
With a "squeak", there was the sound of someone pushing the door open.
Ji Nanjing was startled and wanted to run away. The masked man was very calm. All he was thinking was: if someone saw him in Bai Yanqing's courtyard, he would probably kill that person.
"You two gentlemen, please sit in the room! If you are not tired, my lady is."
The person who came was actually Cai Xing!
Cai Xing had practiced boxing and kicking a few times since she was a child, so her hearing was naturally more sensitive than others, and her vigilance was naturally higher. In addition, she was injured, and her back hurt at night. She tossed and turned for a long time, unable to sleep. Listen.
When there was movement in the courtyard, she was a little worried, so she put on her clothes and went out to check.
As soon as she saw the three people standing in the yard, she wanted to laugh.
Needless to say, Ji Nanjing has always been a funny person and can always make her young lady happy. The other one, although he is serious in speech and not good at talking, is also concerned about her young lady.
Otherwise, why did that person nervously come over to deliver medicine in the middle of the night when her young lady was injured? How many nights did she stay with her?
Although Cai Xing didn't know the purpose of this man entering the Bai Mansion and what his intentions were towards her young lady, it was not difficult to see that he had no ill intentions towards Bai Yanqing and had no murderous intentions.
The appearance of Cai Xing broke the awkward situation among the three of them.
Cai Xing persuaded Ji Nanjing and the masked young man into the house. If they continued to be in such a stalemate, they would probably attract others.
Oh, man, how strange it is!
There were not many lights on in the room, only one. The dim light made it impossible for people to see the expression on Ji Nanjing's face at this moment, and it also made it impossible for them to see the facial features of the masked man under the hood.
After all, Bai Yanqing was considerate. She was neither curious about the appearance of the masked man, nor did she want her brother Jing to be exposed to outsiders too much.
In order to appease Ji Nanjing, Caixing made tea for them and told Ji Nanjing everything that happened in the past few days, including the masked man in front of him delivering medicine to Bai Yanqing.
After hearing this, Ji Nanjing felt a little relieved. In any case, as long as he was not an enemy, it didn't matter whether he was a friend or not. He didn't need this "friend", and neither did the Ji family. Of course, if he could
If so, he hoped that Bai Yanqing wouldn't need it either.
However, for the sake of the masked man saving Bai Yanqing's life, Ji Nanjing did not ask any more questions, and his hostility towards the man became a little less.
"How is Miss' illness?"
After Cai Xing boiled the water and refilled tea for each of them, he asked aloud, thus breaking the awkward silence between the two of them at the right time.
"It's nothing serious. Just follow Doctor Zhao's prescription and take it for another seven days."
After sitting there for a long time, the man finally struck up a conversation and answered Cai Xing's words.
Cai Xing finally felt relieved after hearing this. She walked to Bai Yanqing and tucked her cloak up for her, lest she catch a cold again.
"Thank you this time..."
Bai Yanqing was not familiar with this person, and she didn't know how to thank him. She felt in her heart that this person was not the kind of person who cares about external things like money. For a moment, she didn't know how to thank him other than thanking him.
"This time, I owe you. If there is any need for me in the future, I will be there."
Seeing that the man didn't say anything, Bai Yanqing spoke again.
"In need."
The man stared into Bai Yanqing's eyes and spoke directly. His hot gaze almost burned Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing glanced over her head in embarrassment and coughed twice to relieve her embarrassment.
"You won't...want me to marry the third prince again, will you?"
Bai Yanqing remembered the first time she met him. He just wanted her to marry the third prince Yun Ji. Then she asked bravely.
"Then...marry me?"
The man stared at Bai Yanqing and spoke slowly.
"Pfft...cough, I knew your intentions were not pure!"
Hearing this, before Bai Yanqing had time to react, Ji Nanjing became anxious! His cousin was unparalleled in the world, how could a young man who hides his head and face deserve to miss his good sister?
Bai Yanqing and Cai Xing looked at each other in confusion. What did this man say?
Last time he asked Bai Yanqing to marry the third prince, but today he actually asked Bai Yanqing to marry him? Doesn't he know that Bai Yanqing is going to run for the palace?
"I want to..."
Just as Bai Yanqing was about to refuse, the man interrupted her.
"I know you want to enter the palace, this is just a small problem."
The man looked unconcerned. Did he not know what he was talking about?
Enter the palace, the palace! The big cage that Bai Yanqing is going to enter is the palace! Did he think that it was such a small family that it would be so easy to regret the marriage? Still resisting the decree!
"I'm warning you, stay away from my sister! If you dare to hurt her, I won't spare you!"
At this moment, Ji Nanjing felt that something was wrong with this person, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He was a little annoyed! He was also a little worried! He was afraid that the person in front of him would be detrimental to Bai Yanqing! After all, everyone knew that behind Bai Yanqing, there was Bai Yanqing.
Family and Ji family!
Ji Nanjing was afraid that the man had plans for Bai Yanqing, and he was also afraid that he had plans for the Bai family and the Ji family!
"What I want, I always rely on myself, not women! Don't worry...brother-in-law!"
After the man finished speaking, he stood up and left without giving the people in the room time to react.
"He...what did he call me?"
Ji Nanjing was confused. That person called him brother-in-law?
Wait! Brother-in-law!
It wasn't until this moment that Bai Yanqing and Ji Nanjing realized what they felt was wrong!
This masked man knew Ji Nanjing and knew that Ji Nanjing was Bai Yanqing's cousin. In other words, from the moment Ji Nanjing showed up just now, that person knew that it was Ji Nanjing, and he knew that it was Ji Nanjing who came.
It’s the Ji family here!
The Ji family and the Bai family have not interacted with each other for many years, and Bai Yanqing and the Ji family have secretly communicated with each other. No one except Bai Jingxuan and Cai Xing knows about it. Why does this masked man know so clearly?
Thinking of this, Bai Yanqing and Ji Nanjing felt a chill on their backs and their eyes were twitching!
This person is not simple!
Seeing that Bai Yanqing was fine, Ji Nanjing was relieved and left in a hurry. He wanted to tell his grandfather everything that happened in the Bai Mansion tonight so that he could pay more attention to it in court.
This masked man is deliberately trying to get close to Bai Yanqing. If he simply wants to get Bai Yanqing, it is simply impossible! With his skills, it is obvious that he is not an ordinary guard. In addition, his understanding of Bai Yanqing and the Ji family
, it is obvious that after careful investigation, such a deep-minded person intentionally made Bai Yanqing owe him a favor. This matter is big or small!
At this moment, Ji Nanjing no longer looked like he had been playing around for a long time! He just wanted to go back to the General's Mansion as soon as possible!
Bai Yanqing was also extremely confused.
Bai Yanqing knew that the background of this masked man was not simple. In the past, she only thought that this man had a complicated background and could control whether she married the third prince. From this incident, the power behind him made people think deeply.
!
But now, not only did he ask Bai Yanqing to marry him, but he also found out Ji Nanjing's identity. It can be seen that this person's background is not only complicated! His whole person is like a fog, making it difficult for people to understand!
Bai Yanqing tossed and turned for a long time before finally closing her eyes and falling asleep.
…
"Master, is it safe to reveal so much information to them now?"
It was late at night, and Bai Yanqing had already laid down and fell asleep again. But the masked man stood on the wall of Nianchu's small building and never left for a long time.
Next to him, followed closely by a young man who also had his face covered.
"I believe her."
Three simple words, full of determination.
The young man stopped talking to each other. He knew that his master had his own sense of proportion. As a bodyguard, all he could do was to trust his master and the people his master liked.
